Wah-Wah modulation and you’ll understand. Basically, the Wah-Wah modulation is a lowpass type of 
filter that can be swept across the frequency range. During the sweep, the filter’s characteristics also 
changes.
For the Wah-Wah1 modulation you control the “pedal position” with the R
ATE
 knob and the total fre-
quency sweep range with the A
MOUNT
 knob. For the Wah-Wah2 modulation you control the LFO rate 
with the R
ATE
 knob and the total frequency sweep range with the A
MOUNT
 knob.
Note: If you use an expression pedal connected to the C
ONTROL
 P
EDAL
 I
NPUT
 you can control the 
filter sweep and thus the Wah-Wah1 effect from the pedal. Also note that if you’re already using an 
expression pedal for Organ Swell control (se
), the 
Wah-Wah function takes precedence and automatically disables the Swell control.

Auto-Wah is a variation of the Wah-Wah modulation described above. The difference is that here you 
control the filter sweep range, and thus the Wah-Wah effect, from the signal’s amplitude envelope. For 
the Auto-Wah modulation you control the attack time with the R
ATE
 knob and the sensitivity with the 
A
MOUNT
 knob.

The phaser effect is a very characteristic “sweep” effect and is frequently used in all 
sorts of music. You control the rate of the phase shift with the R
ATE
 knob and the 
phase shift amount with the A
MOUNT
 knob.

The flanger effect is another type of very characteristic “sweep” effect. It’s quite sim-
ilar to the phaser effect but has a little different characteristics. You set the flanging 
rate 7with the R
ATE
 knob and the amount with the A
MOUNT
 knob.

The Chorus effect simulates the appearance of several slightly detuned signals. You 
set the rate for the chorus effect with the R
ATE
 knob and the amount with the 
A
MOUNT
 knob. Note that the Chorus2 effect is in stereo.
